Default crysler 8.25 question

ok i need a rearend for my 98 xj. i think mine is the 29 spline. all the junkyards around here want $300 for one but i found one right up the road from me for $100 but its from a 96 and i think they are 27 spline. i know the 27 spline are a little weaker but will it work in my jeep?

The only thing you may have to swap over are the parking brake cables. Other than that it will be a direct bolt in.

Just don't forget to double check the gear ratio and make sure it is the same as yours.
